thanks all... i did the test and was hoping you could help me out... i seem to be getting 12, then 8, then 1, then 8... ive never seen an 81 code on any of the pages ive checked.. i was thinking maybe that could be 44, lean exhaust... but there are definitely no pauses in the blinks. Anyone have a guess?

Code 81 needs a scanner or laptop to get the full readout for it. There are a lot of subsets for that code. I was told the main reason behind that code is possible bad grounds for the battery or the ECM.
